Or people who are using it as a technically correct term. In colloquial use yeah, it's often out of place and just wrong, but if you're using it correctly it's not in and of itself misogynistic. Context and tone is really the determining factor, not the word itself.

Example: breaking out the results in a medical study

Why are they assholes for expecting that the same basic courtesy(of viewing the other person as a person) be granted to them as well?

Do unto others and all that

Where were the hateful men? Did I miss something?

You sure showed him. But seriously, everyone does this, I have heard much on what women find unattractive, I am coming to the conclusion that most people believe that they have a useful opinion(and no, generally they do not)

Fair point, unless you're on break you can kindly fuck off and get back to work.

Not walls and moats but rules. In the absence of rules communities are VERY good at self policing, but this usually results in the loudest assholes shouting everyone into their line of thinking.

That aside you aren't really helping things by hurling insults, just my $0.02

I'm not sure that this is a problem that's particularly new unfortunately. In general though you're right, be very wary of anyone who mentions how proud they are of the accomplishments of others

Woaw there, ideology is is a perfectly legit reason to dislike somebody. Race not so much.

A+

Speak for yourself

It wouldn't be a Jez article if it didn't mention white privilege

There is really no fight to win, as far as I see it eliminating FGM benefits all people since the only logical way to fight it is to foster a more sane discussion around what parents can and should be allowed to do to their children. Unless that talk goes very far off the rails I don't see any way that it wouldn't

The hygiene issue is not particularly compelling, it's not even strong enough for the AAP to recommend it as a universal procedure, the actual data seems to be behind a paywall so I don't know what the NNH or NNT are. This is assuming a sterile procedure, I'm guessing though not certain, that the scales would tip

You need to do research, castration isn't the removal of the penis, it's removal of the testes, resulting in sterility.

I'm more upset that from what I've heard they are wayyyy overthinking details that don't need the thought(Ecto-1, the firehouse, etc).

Secondly, their problem with McCarthy should be that she is not fucking funny, not that she's heavy.

First off, I was responding to a commenter. I did not create this thread, I was not the one who made the choice to talk about male circumcision, I was just responding to someone else's challenge. My posts have been shaped by the responses I've gotten, and it's led me into talking about circumcision, but that isn't my

And yet, never, not once have to tried to equate the outcomes. I am saying that bodily autonomy is important(abortion, rape, FGM, etc) regardless of what sex the kid is.

All Ive been trying to get anyone to fucking agree with is that allowing people to cut pieces off of their children is WRONG. You'd think I waltzed in

This "hyperventilating" is from me, who again, if you bothered to read my comments before responding would know I WAS circumcised, and it happened when I was old enough to remember it.

You fucking twats and your need to say that "it's just a little cut", well hey, unsurprisingly GETTING PART OF YOUR BODY CUT OFF

You didn't even take 10 seconds to read anything. I have never and will never be making the argument that the suffering is the same. You people need to stop creating these strawmen. What I'm saying is they are both expressions of someone committing the same negative behaviour, which is to say ignoring bodily autonomy.

People like you who like to shut down discussion and want to police what people are saying is what the rest of the internet hates about Jezebel.
